Product Description
SOLENOID (12 VOLT)
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the voltage rating for this solenoid?
A: SKU 7003907 is a 12-volt solenoid coil assembly designed for electric forklift and lift truck applications. Verify your equipment runs a 12-volt DC electrical system before ordering. Installing a 12-volt solenoid on 24-volt or 48-volt equipment will cause immediate coil failure.
Q: What electric lift truck brands does this solenoid fit?
A: SKU 7003907 is compatible with 12-volt electric lift trucks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, Linde, and Clark. Verify the solenoid mounting footprint, terminal style, and coil resistance match your equipment before ordering.
Q: What does this solenoid control in a lift truck?
A: Solenoid valve assemblies (SKU 7003907) control hydraulic flow direction and function in lift trucks. Common applications include mast raise-lower circuits, side shift function, and load-holding valves. Consult your equipment manual to identify the specific solenoid function.
Q: How long does a solenoid coil typically last?
A: A solenoid coil (SKU 7003907) typically lasts 3,000 to 5,000 operating hours. Coil burnout occurs from overheating (dust, poor cooling), voltage spikes, continuous energization, or manufacturing defect. Replace the entire solenoid if the coil fails.
Q: What are signs of solenoid failure?
A: Failure symptoms include loss of mast function, intermittent operation, clicking noise without valve actuation, burning smell, or valve sticking. Test solenoid coil resistance with a multimeter against specification. Replace if resistance is zero (short) or infinite (open).
